Brochures and PowerPoint Presentations

Winning major architectural projects requires superior design and great detail. Having worked with a leading London-based architects’ firm for a number of years, we are continually asked to produce marketing and technical material in foreign languages.

With 4 offices in different parts of the world, our remit is to support the marketing teams with accurate translation that reflects industry style and terminology as well as the company’s philosophy.

Particular attention is paid to the style of each translation that we produce for this company, and by working closely with in-country teams, our translators produce the right results every time.

Not only this, our publishing team are heavily relied on to ensure that brochures and PowerPoint presentations have the correct look and feel, ensuring that the content fits in well with the graphic work.

Our most recent project was to support the firm’s Chinese and Spanish offices with translation services for several pitches to prestigious clients.

  • Provide Simplified Chinese and Spanish translation for a 70-page brochure and a PowerPoint presentation
  • Ensure each translated version reads in the style required by the in-country teams and is suitable for publication purposes
  • Ensure all formatting is accurate and suitable for publication

Solution

  • Project manager assigned previously approved translators to the project
  • Editors assigned for proofreading and terminology consistency
  • Desktop publishing team assigned, Quality Assurance workflow including 2 rounds of page proofing

  • Translation work delivered on time

Next Phase

  • Further translation work has since been assigned to us as a result, the client is now preparing further presentations to clients for specific building projects
